+1 Just installed 2258 here, my first impression was that home page had hung/locked-up, noticed no Journal, tried to click an activity to launch something and then was dragged away into the control panel auto update. One of those non-modal alerts (horizontal black strip that pops out from below the toolbar) would be more friendly. The XOs been downloading updates for 10+min now. BTW: I do really like the standard updater (progress bar still needs some tweaking so it keep a grey outline and isn't all white fill), just would be nice to alow the user to trigger it*** ***I also felt the the behaviour where software update starts as soon as you click on the control panel icon was a little off. Would be more user friendly to display the updater interface with a button to clearly initiate the update process. Currently, if a kid goes poking about the control panel UI (a good thing), they are going to be triggering unintended update attempts for sure – on all kinds of slow network topologies... --G _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
